"Extreme Triumphal
Weeding Haiku Series"
by Suzán Jiván
Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Before a hoedown
phantom barnyard grasses sprout
troweling turnarounds
cloned near cluttered homes
entering without knocking
hollow-sounding bash
skeletal remains
delving into detritus
trauma to the head
slogging in the yard
abandoned homes, emptied lots
donning barbed wire
drowsily zig-zagged
knowingly showing and shown
profiled prone to lows
paying top dollar
admirably acknowledged
me-too worlds of art
later-day khaki
all-seeing eye survivors
camouflaged fatigues
feisty, brass-knuckley
eminently trust worthy
long after cancer
invasive species
extreme triumphal weeding
hosed down high-waisted
expecting to pitch
emissaries of good will
yelling "frond" farewells...
